A Novel Approach to Study the Performance of Finned-Tube Heat Exchangers under Frosting Conditions
Frost accumulation due to moist air flowing on a refrigeration coil cold surface impacts negatively on performance. The frost layer growth has an insulating effect in terms of heat transfer and causes the increase of the air pressure drop by blocking the free flow area across the coil. In this pap...
